Using elastic resistance
during lunges may be superior to using conventional free weight resistance for developing the gluteus maximus.
Gluteus maximus EMG amplitude can be enhanced
during lunges (and probably also split squats) by selecting the forward variation, using longer step lengths, and using elastic resistance to increase the difficulty at the top of the movement.
Moreover, Jakobsen et al. (2013) reported that
during lunges with both free weights and elastic resistance, EMG amplitude of most of the leg muscles is greatest at the point of peak hip and knee flexion, where ground reaction forces are exerted in order to start the lifting phase but that in the elastic resistance condition, there was a trend towards a more even level of EMG amplitude across joint angles.
